Some proposed changes to fare information
[edit]![]() | This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
- Information to be added or removed: Replace “One fare entitles a rider to unlimited vehicle transfers for the next 90 to 120 minutes.” with “One fare entitles a rider to unlimited vehicle transfers within the allotted time period. All travel on the fare must be completed within 120 minutes.” or similar text that conveys the same meaning.
- Explanation of issue: (1) Transfers are now based on 120 minutes, not the former 90 minutes. (2) The existing text implies that if a transfer occurs before the end of the 120-minute period that the fare-payer can continue riding past the end of the 120-minute period without paying an additional fare. That is not the case. The total elapsed time between purchasing the fare and completing travel must be 120 minutes or less to be within the fare policy.
- References supporting change: https://www.sfmta.com/fares/single-ride-adult, https://www.sfmta.com/fares/single-ride-discount, https://www.sfmta.com/sites/default/files/reports-and-documents/2018/08/fare_policy_18.0816.pdf

[edit] Edit request implemented Spintendo 19:45, 25 February 2019 (UTC)
Still has incorrect information
[edit]{{request edit}}
The correction to 120 minutes was implemented, thank you. However, it still reads that unlimited transfers are available for that period, while the actual case is that unlimited travel is available for that period. If someone transfers just before the 120 minutes expire, they cannot continue riding past the 120-minute mark without paying an additional fare. CharlesBelovSFMTA (talk) 21:28, 25 February 2019 (UTC)
- I've indicated that in the Notes section. Spintendo 22:46, 25 February 2019 (UTC)
- I'm sorry, I missed that. Thank you. CharlesBelovSFMTA (talk) 23:15, 25 February 2019 (UTC)
Incorrect logo shown
[edit]![]() | This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined. The proposed file is scheduled for deletion in seven (7) days. |
The logo shown appears to be an attempt by someone to recreate the Muni logo as an SVG file, but the curves are wrong. Please replace with the correct logo, which I have uploaded to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Muni_worm_logo.png CharlesBelovSFMTA (talk) 00:44, 24 May 2019 (UTC)
- Can you provide an SVG version (or a link to a PDF document that I could extract an SVG version from)? Or alternately, a diagram showing proper dimensions and color for the logo, so that I can modify the current file? There is no sense using a small PNG image with a false copyright claim when we can use an SVG with proper public domain claim. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 02:37, 24 May 2019 (UTC)
- WP:LOGOS states "Logos uploaded to Wikipedia must be low-resolution and no larger than necessary." If I were to upload an SVG logo, it would be resolution-independent, which would violate that policy. CharlesBelovSFMTA (talk) 20:31, 24 May 2019 (UTC)
Reply 25-MAY-2019
[edit]- The current version of the logo, an svg file:
- The proposed version of the logo, a png file:
The licensing provided with the current svg version is valid. The licensing provided with the proposed png version is incomplete. Thus, the file that is the proposed version is currently slated for deletion, which will likely occur anytime after Saturday, June 1, 2019 if no further clarifications to its licensing are added to the file.

Muni shares four Metro stations with BART (how is this counted?)
[edit]This statement has no citation, and it's unclear how this count was arrived at. Muni Metro shares four stations with BART in the Market Street subway -- Embarcadero, Montgomery, Powell, and Civic Center -- but the J, K, and M lines connect with BART at Balboa Park station.
In my personal experience it's very confusing to transfer between BART and Muni Metro at Balboa Park, but is there some reason this station is seemingly omitted from the number of stations shared with BART? — Preceding unsigned comment added by MrEricSir (talk • contribs) 14:28, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
